dim_web_header3   If you are a teacher then you have probably already run through your fair share of FREE PRINTABLES WEBSITES. Personally, I use them just about every day when planning my pre-k lessons.  I always need coloring pages, I always need letter tracing pages, and of course, I am always on the look out for super cute craft ideas and themed projects.  I have a bunch of great free printables sites saved in my favorites on the computer…. now I have another one to add! 

  Allow me to introduce you to a new one:  Dimensions-Designs.  Dimensions-Designs is maintained by Roslen Roy Mack, an award winning illustrator of children’s books. 

Roslen has illustrated such stories as:

   and This Explains A Lot - A Family's Funny File

With her website Dimensions Design, you can print free coloring pages, and printables for your classroom,  download room decorations,  and buy apparel and gifts featuring Roslen’s designs.

Let me start this review with a preview of some of her free printables and coloring pages.  All of the free printables can be found here:  http://www.dimensions-designs.com

  Roslen’s coloring pages feature the seasons, holidays such as Christmas, Valentines Day and Halloween,  and animals such as sea life, insects, and farm animals.  There is also an adorable ABC coloring book to download and capital letter and number tracing pages too.  Roslen is still in the process of adding more activity pages to the site, but there is still quite a bit on the site to keep you busy with your your own children or in your class room.   The great part is that most of it is FREE!

     Roslen also has an adorable set of letter and number flashers (flash cards) which you can buy for $1.99

Alphabet and Numbers Flashcards 

     The third part of the site is Roslen’s custom apparel and gift shop.  Roslen was sweet enough to send me a GREAT hoodie sweatshirt  as a sample of her work.   I LOVE IT!!!   This is what she sent:

Lil' Angels Heart Kids Hoodie  The sweatshirt is a nice thick, soft, comfy quality sweatshirt (Hanes Brand) and the design is just precious.  SO CUTE!  Some little girl will be very happy wearing it– I wish she had adult sizes, but alas at this time, Roslen’s  sweatshirts are for children only.  Don’ t worry though, there ARE a bunch of items for you too mom—
